Episode 94: Workgroup vs. Domain Setup

Understanding the difference between workgroups and domains is essential for both configuring and supporting business environments. In this episode, we define what a workgroup is—typically a decentralized network for home or small office setups where each machine manages its own users. We contrast that with a domain, where a central domain controller handles user authentication, permissions, and policy enforcement across all connected machines.We also discuss the prerequisites for domain membership, including supported editions of Windows and proper network configuration. Knowing when to recommend or troubleshoot a workgroup versus a domain is crucial on the exam and in professional IT support scenarios. This episode prepares you to make that distinction clearly and accurately. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com.
